“Abraham: The Man God Chose—and Why It Makes No Sense” “The Dangerous Faith of Abraham”

The Man Who Should Not Have Been Chosen

Four billion people—more than half of humanity alive today—trace their spiritual identity back to one man.

Not a king.
Not a prophet raised in holiness.
Not a man born into truth.

An idol maker.

A man who grew up surrounded by clay gods that could not speak, could not move, could not save. A man whose family business depended on manufacturing objects people bowed down to. A man shaped by a system built on illusion, ritual, and fear.

And yet, this is the man God chose to change the world.

Why?

That question is more dangerous than it sounds.

Because if God had chosen a priest, it would make sense.
If He had chosen a righteous man, it would feel predictable.
If He had chosen someone already close to Him, it would be easy to explain.

But He didn’t.

He chose a man from the middle of confusion, contradiction, and false worship—and built the foundation of history on his life.
